Tree of Life Messianic Congregation

Tree of Life is a Messianic Congregation in La Mesa, CA which is in San Diego County. As a Messianic Jewish congregation, we celebrate Messiah and the Judaism He represented, where the principles of Torah are observed from the heart and not merely from the head. Since we believe this is a Jewish faith for the entire world, we welcome everyone who seeks to better understand Messiah and connect with the Jewish roots of their faith. Yeshua said, “My house shall be called a house of prayer for all people.” At Tree of Life, we are a congregation with no second-class citizens! You can find us online at www.treeoflifeca.org and on Facebook and YouTube!
